I was not trying to read anything into this poem other than what it says. Neither did I analyse it in relation to the crimes or Thompson. Your very first response to my initial post on this thread, which was on his his personal, private letters was,

'I don't think, though, that it's helpful to offer up dissections of his creative works as proof of him being a murderer.'

When I was not offering his creative works or offering up dissections of them.
